I couldn't find any fresh ungoogled-chromium builds, at least for my device. Isn't the project actually dead?
No. If you are looking for binaries you have them here https://ungoogled-software.github.io/ungoogled-chromium-binaries/
So they just don't port/compile it for certain platforms anymore?
For what I remember they only compiled it to Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD and some ARM architectures. You can always compile it yourself altho, the wait time is lengthy.
I’ve done this, and while it’s a good browser, it’s super annoying - so much easier to stick Arkenfox.js into Firefox where uBO was never under threat anyway.
The level of control Google has over the Chromium project is always going to be a major liability, so we must support other engines long term, and until Ladybird and other projects are out there, it’s Firefox.
It’s a shame to see how beholden pols have become to corpo-oligarchs, we’ll never see Google carved up the way AT&T was.
I agree, that's the dream at least. Even Mozilla has been making poor choices (AI and changes to their privacy policy with more nuanced language so they can share your data with their partners, which goes directly against their old promise to never share it or collect it). My faith in them is very much shaken but yeah, they are still better than the alternative....for now.
